If there is a trojan virus on the Glenn Harris site, but on an ad on the page, does that affect the files downloaded if you don't click on the ad?

I don't know of the company - why not try ringing The Company and informing them of what has happened. Maybe they can help you out. Best of luck. Love Chris

Chris, Glenn Harris is an Australian site. If you haven't seen it is well worth a look. He is very good.

Thank you Lisa - I don't have any Australian sites. I have only American ones. Thankyou for the web address. Love Chris

You will not get the virus as long as you do not click on the ad. Clicking on the ad triggers the executable file. How do you know that there is a trojan? If you are getting a warning from your virus protection you have an obligation to report to the webmaster for the Glen Harris site. It is a serious accusation to state that a site has a virus without being absolutely positive as it could do irreparable damage to that website's business. Please notify that webmaster of your concerns.

Very interesting. I just visited that site (among many others), and today my computer crashed on my job. I guess I'd better run a scan. I did not click any ad, however. I just downloaded a couple designs. May be just a coincidence.

Glenn Harris is a good site. If there is a virus, he would like to be told about it.He works very hard to make his site one of the best.Send him an e-mail. But don't forget his is an Australian site, so you may not hear from him immediately.

I have also been to his site in the last week, and downloaded the lovely clown face. It is a lovely site and I must say I also had no trouble what so all.
